The pageant is sponsored by the Miss Cobb County Scholarship Pageant, Inc., a nonprofit organization composed entirely of community volunteers.

Judging categories are a 10-minute private interview, physical fitness, talent, evening wear and on-stage question. One of these 14 outstanding young women will be the 58th Miss Cobb County:
